For additional context, tonight was the first night going to the track field to do some speed exercises. I saw a lady walking her dog so it counts.

(I was honestly planning to put a zero in here if I didn’t see any because I wanted to see what the generated path would look like 😄)

@mergesort had to make really really sure
Had to make sure my dog counting website looks good on the MacBook Neo.

Moved https://dogs.romain.codes to Netlify while I figure where I want to move my projects. It was fun to use bunny.net and their storage and CDN, but it became a little annoying to do incremental deployments.

Now with my blog (https://romain.codes) and other stupid project (like https://iaint.romain.codes/), everything is on Netlify and it’s a reminder to move all the projects from there.

I tested Coolify over the weekend and I don’t know if I’m convinced.

Some technical reasons gave me pause and some community stuff as well. Specifically the code of conduct on discord that mentions: "Avoid Sensitive Topics such as Politics, LGBTAQ+, and Related Topics". 🥴

@Palleas Not as cool as the others, but in German you could use "Bis später, Peter" 😄

Perfect is the enemy of something something. I updated the website I made to keep track of the number of dogs I see during my runs, and it’s in a good enough shape to be shared.

It’s been such a fun project so far, learning new stuff about CSS, SVG and so on.
